I am proud of my substantive contributions to Wikipedia, many listed below, and I appreciate other people's work.

I am referring to Wikipedia from several web sites that I maintain, because I realise the usefulness of the articles and the intellectual rigor achieved by collective work (whatever the doubters and gain-sayers dredge up from time to time.)
